Competition Winner - Email Withdrawal
Our sincere apologies - our system has incorrectly emailed 25 people advising that they have won our October competition. We know that you will be disappointed, but the competition does not close until the 31 October, and the winner will not be announced until the 1 November.

However, thank you for entering our October competition, and you have correctly identified that Brussels is the capital of Belgium.

Your entry will be placed in a draw to be held on the 1 November, and the winner will be notified by email. Our apologies again for the error and our system has now been corrected.

Good Luck!
